Unfortunatly that will probably hold him reasonably better off than his football knowledge.
Boy i wish there was a game where you had to pick a team before round 1 NAB cup.
Byrnes is putting a big doubt in my mind....done close to nothing so far.
Then again Knights hasn't played last 2 NAB cup games....so what is the deal there?
Don't like either at this stage.

I will absolutely spew if PattyK gets 20+ possies tonight. If there's a god out there, please make Karnezis spud it up or get vested at some point.

And I think my point of Zorko v Martin as a stupid question has been justified.
Martin once again showing no heart to hunt the ball get involved in the play and lay tackles..

No it hasn't. Martin has a shocker and yes it is very concerning but that doesn't mean it wasn't a valid question. I really don't get how you don't understand that. Plus, part of the reason you think it is not a valid comparison is because they are different prices which is just wrong.
In your opinion Zorko is a far better selection because Martin isn't good enough defensively to put up big enough scores. You believe Zorko is also worth spending the extra 60k on. Why not just say that?

So you most certainly wouldnt be picking Gaz or Swan then?

Youre really trying to be an antagonist arent you
No because Swan and GAJ have shown they can score
Dusty has shown he has no heart or drive and this continued in this NAB
They're completely irrelevant

This is the x v y thread...
Martin vs Wright would have been a justifiable quesiton but Zorko is clearly better everything backs that up
If he wanted to know whether it was worth the extra 60k it depends how you spend it so bring an extra duo in for evaluation but HE DIDNT
So its not a valid question... geesus

You can compare everyone IMO
Its all about value and bang for buck outside of captaincy

No he has not....
When has he averaged over 90??
Oh thats right NEVER

Yeah well bring the other duo in to make it a comparison
Jaeger v Fyfe is not a fair evaluation
But Jaeger & Robinson vs Fyfe & Ben Kennedy
is a fair evaluation
That 60k means a lot

Even without the money, it doesn't matter. Both Zorko and Martin have question marks over there head. Many people on here aren't willing to pick Zorko and for good reasons.
If Martin came out firing today and pumped out a big score would that have made the question justifiable? because if him stinking it up today is enough to justify your claims then him having a big day must mean the opposite?

He has played 3 seasons and averaged 89 in his second. That's very close to 90 no matter how you spin it.

No no, in the same way that a bad score from Swan doesnt change his history, a good score from Martin doesnt change his history...
Are you dense or just trying to be confrontational??
You seem to really have a problem with me

Hes priced at 84 why does he need to have avg over 90 before hes avg 89-90 in 2011.
Ablett has avg 124 before but yes hes priced at 124
Swan has avg 133 before, but yes hes priced at 133
All relative you see
There musnt be enough cap for you to fit in 22 90+avg players
Hows Zorko going for you? plenty of midfield time like Martin?

How bigs the hole you want to bid
You say that 60k means alot, right? yep you just said it quoted above.
Well hes asking Martin + 60k vs Zorko (great comparison) why im asking myself and if asking myself im sure its a bloody good question.

Correct, it doesn't. But a bad game by Martin also doesn't mean a bad year for him. So:
Is not correct.
No, i don't have a problem with you. I think you let your bias and hate for certain players affect your advice but most do. I had a problem with your post which i originally quoted and has led to this debate. The only other conversation i can recall having you was about Murphy getting tagged so i don't know why you think I have a problem with you.

There you go thats all that was needed to be said from the start. Not that its a stupid comparison. Even you have now answered it which shows it be a fair comparison.
Okay I'm going to ask a question to get us back on topic.
Franklin and Josh Kennedy (WC) vs. Dustin Martin and Mark LeCras
Initially was leaning towards the second option but I'm pretty convinced on the first one now.
